Real-world clinical outcomes of patients with BRCA-mutated, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer: a CancerLinQ® study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate real-world clinical outcomes in patients with BRCA-mutated (BRCAm), HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (mBC) according to BRCA and hormone receptor (HR) status.

Methods

Patients diagnosed with HER2-negative mBC between 01 January 2010 and 31 December 2018 were retrospectively identified from the American Society of Clinical Oncology's CancerLinQ Discovery® database. Time to first subsequent therapy or death (TFST) from date of mBC diagnosis and start of first-line treatment for mBC and overall survival (OS) from date of mBC diagnosis were investigated according to BRCA status (BRCAm, BRCA wild type [BRCAwt] or unknown BRCA [BRCAu]) and HR status (positive/triple negative breast cancer [TNBC]). Follow-up continued until 31 August 2019 (i.e. minimum of 8 months).

Results

3744 patients with HER2-negative mBC were identified (BRCAwt, n = 460; BRCAm, n = 83; BRCAu, n = 3201) (HR-positive, n = 2738). Median (Q1, Q3) age was 63.0 (54.0, 73.0) years. Median (95% confidence interval [CI]) TFST (months) from mBC diagnosis was as follows: HR-positive, 7.7 (5.0, 11.2), 8.3 (6.6, 10.2) and 9.4 (8.7, 10.1); TNBC, 5.4 (3.9, 12.4), 5.6 (4.7, 6.6) and 5.4 (5.0, 6.2) for BRCAm, BRCAwt and BRCAu, respectively. Median (95% CI) OS (months) was as follows: HR-positive, 41.1 (31.5, not calculable), 55.1 (43.5, 65.5) and 33.0 (31.3, 34.8); TNBC, 13.7 (11.1, not calculable), 14.4 (10.7, 17.0) and 11.7 (10.3, 12.8) for BRCAm, BRCAwt and BRCAu, respectively.

Conclusion

When stratified by HR status, TFST and OS were broadly similar for patients with HER2-negative mBC, irrespective of BRCA status. Further global real-world studies are needed to study outcomes of this patient population.

Project description:BackgroundThe global observational BREAKOUT study investigated germline BRCA mutation (gBRCAm) prevalence in a population of patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC).MethodsEligible patients had initiated first-line cytotoxic chemotherapy for HER2-negative MBC within 90 days prior to enrollment. Hormone receptor (HR)-positive patients had experienced disease progression on or after prior endocrine therapy, or endocrine therapy was considered unsuitable. gBRCAm status was determined using baseline blood samples or prior germline test results. For patients with a negative gBRCAm test, archival tissue was tested for somatic BRCAm and homologous recombination repair mutations (HRRm). Details of first-line cytotoxic chemotherapy were also collected.ResultsBetween March 2017 and April 2018, 384 patients from 14 countries were screened and consented to study enrollment; 341 patients were included in the full analysis set (median [range] age at enrollment: 56 [25-89] years; 256 (75.3%) postmenopausal). Overall, 33 patients (9.7%) had a gBRCAm (16 [4.7%] in gBRCA1 only, 12 [3.5%] in gBRCA2 only, and 5 [1.5%] in both gBRCA1 and gBRCA2). gBRCAm prevalence was similar in HR-positive and HR-negative patients. gBRCAm prevalence was 9.0% in European patients and 10.6% in Asian patients and was higher in patients aged ≤ 50 years at initial breast cancer (BC) diagnosis (12.9%) than patients aged > 50 years (5.4%). In patients with any risk factor for having a gBRCAm (family history of BC and/or ovarian cancer, aged ≤ 50 years at initial BC diagnosis, or triple-negative BC), prevalence was 10.4%, versus 5.8% in patients without these risk factors. HRRm prevalence was 14.1% (n = 9/64) in patients with germline BRCA wildtype.ConclusionsPatient demographic and disease characteristics supported the association of a gBRCAm with younger age at initial BC diagnosis and family history of BC and/or ovarian cancer. gBRCAm prevalence in this cohort, not selected on the basis of risk factors for gBRCAm, was slightly higher than previous results suggested. gBRCAm prevalence among patients without a traditional risk factor for harboring a gBRCAm (5.8%) supports current guideline recommendations of routine gBRCAm testing in HER2-negative MBC, as these patients may benefit from poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor therapy.Trial registrationNCT03078036 .
